FIGURE 1.

Plasma glycerol concentration (a), total plasma free fatty acid (FFA) concentration (b), and concentration of individual FFA species in plasma (c). n = 6 mice per group for FFA and n = 5–6 per group for glycerol. Analysis by ANOVA. ^Alb^−/− significantly different from WT (main effect of genotype, p < 0.05). The order of histogram bars in (c) is the same as (a) and (b) (i.e., from left to right for each FFA: WT male, Alb^−/− male, WT female, Alb^−/− female). Significant main effect of genotype was observed for each individual FFA species as well (c), indicating significantly lower FFA concentration in Alb^−/− than WT; due to space considerations in this panel, the symbols are not shown graphically
